[OOC] Epic City: Starburst

[Obscurus]

Hey guys, whose characters are currently in or near Heroes café?

@Obscurus
I'm directly outside it, if you wanna meet someone that just caused a few harpies to have head trauma.

Hey guys, this is info about Jet Fuel for in the NPC box. (I guess he needs to be GM approved too)

Jet Fuel

Name: Robert Malloy

Epic Identity: Jet Fuel

Age: 27

Faction: Epic, Hero

Ability: Melting! With his mind, he can melt anything within a range of 10 meters, that he concentrates on, as long as he can see it or touch it. (including steel beams) This could be a specific thing, or things in a specific area. Living and nonliving matter. In a matter of seconds he can melt off your ear. Alternatively, if he takes half a minute, he can melt an entire person. Things that he melts, become warmer but not hot. Unmeltable things (according to science) turn out to melt after all! He even claims he can melt abstract concepts. But so far no proof has been provided.

Weakness: Ironically, the only thing he hasn't been able to melt so far, is ice (frozen water specifically). If a subject he wants to melt is in contact with ice, it doesn't work. If one would press an icecube to his neck, Jet Fuel wouldn't be able to harm him. If one would press an icecube on Jet Fuel's neck, the hero wouldn't be able to use his power at all.

Personality: With fairly matching suits, come somwhat matching personalities. Think spiderman homecoming for enthousiastic end eager to be a hero. But older and beaten with experience, so with more sarcastic remarks. With all the wisecracking, you wouldn't notice right away, but Robert/Jet Fuel has his heart in the right place, and wants to do the right thing. Intention isn't everything though. Maybe it's the ADHD that helps him fucking things up.

Appearance: Red Spandex suit, that still needs something. Suit details and logo sketches are lying all around his room. When not being a superhero, Robert wears his basic blue jeans, brown shoes and brown jacket. His face is small and long with short blonde hair. His body toned but nothing impressive. He stands about 1,70 meters.

supersuit

Background: Robert shares an apartment with Steve. They have been friends since highschool and Robert freed Steve from the wheelchair of smallness. After highschool, they went to university together. In this time Robert developed his alter ego: Meltman. This was later changed to Jet Fuel. After university he pursued the hero path even more. He became an active member of VEST (Volunteer Emergency Service Tech) and has been trying to become famous ever since. At the same time he strives for classic hero values, like courage, honesty, justice, honor etc. etc. His dream is to fight alongside the major heroes of Epic City.

I should probably make one of those for Pudding.

@Banana

Good to know! I'm going to bed now though, so I can't catch up right now. Feel free to move your character wherever, I'll see what I can make tomorrow. Good night!

@Obscurus
Alex is outside.
Roxana is inside.
Devil is outside.
Archangel is outside.
Guilt is in a box deep down below.
But I'm catching up on the IC, so I might have missed someone.

[Old Amsterdam]

Alright, everyone dealing with the Snapper has been updated. Sorry if I missed anyone to tag.

The Harpies will be updated after @Feisty-Pants has a chance to reply.

I also believe @Floodtalon was thinking of jumping into that fight, yes?

[Flamelord]

Alright, everyone dealing with the Snapper has been updated. Sorry if I missed anyone to tag.

@Old Amsterdam

*Silently waves* I almost got a post up just before that too

[Old Amsterdam]

@Flamelord
Sorry, friend, being out weedeating for four hours and trying to update everything is... Annoying. I knew I missed someone, I just couldn't figure out who.

[Old Amsterdam]

Okay, I lied. Minor update for anyone involved with the Harpies. Again, sorry if I missed a mention.

[Override]

Posted. I wonder where Feisty has gone off too. Ah well. People are busy. Glad to have some monsters to fight.

[Old Amsterdam]

@Override
More like monsters to piss off.

[Override]

Eh. Not much option. Haha

@thewizardguy Guilt: "Do the impossible, then I'll play nice."

I'll have a post up for Spec and Dragon in a while.

@Regitnui

Please please please mention the shake weight flying violently around the battlefield

[Regitnui]

@Mercenary Lord, I would if i knew what a shakeweight was.

[Old Amsterdam]

@Regitnui
A shake weight looks like a normal hands held weight, except you grab the middle with both hands and it shakes. Looks like you're giving a handy J, in my opinion.

[Old Amsterdam]

South Park actually had an episode about it. The thing would spray you with 'water' and drop out enough money for a cab. It was 'training woman to handle their men' or something.

[thewizardguy]

@Regitnui
The kryptonites are really so powerful that the High Island can't defeat them?

....how?

[Regitnui]

@thewizardguy, it's not that they're impossible to assault. It's because they're dispersed. Would Guilt expect the Island to kill children because their mother was working for the Kryptonites? Collapse a university because the Kryptonites recruited in the cellars beneath the library? I'll have this in the reply, but I figured it was worth saying now.

@floodtalon, the harpies and the Dragon/Blacklight fight are taking place in different parts of the city. Pick one or the other to get involved in.

But I did picture that horse-riding bounty hunter from Cowboy Bebop with your post. Andy, I think...
